I, for one, sure am glad The State News chose not to publish the Danish cartoons that have offended Muslims on campus and across the world.

As a Catholic, this must mean I can also be sure that I will never again see any photos or images in The State News that I find offensive to my faith, such as the infamous photos of so-called art over the years that have featured a crucifix in a jar of urine and a painting of the Blessed Virgin covered in elephant dung.

I also don't want to see any photos of abortion rights activists, San Diego Padres baseball players or John Bice.

This does work both ways, doesn't it? Or has the divisiveness of diversity struck again?
